What is the true employment/unemployment rate when you factor in the masses who have given up and left the work force?

Dear Ele,
Every responsible information source should have those figures ready to be inserted into the lead of every unemployment story.

I know plenty of people who are technically employed but who have to take lower paying jobs. How to lie with statistics 101 is what the unemployment rate truly is.
